Domaine de Bellene Hommage à Jean Ferté Savigny-lès-Beaune 1er Cru 2023

Description

This old vine 1er Cru Savigny shows surprisingly deep colour. The nose is lifted, fragrant and floral (lily), with very ripe strawberry/cherry jam, baked plum (actually thought of grenache) barrel spice and toast. It is a mouthful – rich, warm, smooth and refined at the same time. Real power here, with fine tannin balance – almost seamless, and excellent length. Some minerality as well. The length is outstanding. A real mouthful! Tasted March 2025 Score – 95. (David Lawrason, winealign.com)
